Living our daily lives Watching the world go round Talking about the wife Inviting the neighbours
Money wouldn't change us we'd be saying Money wouldn't make us but we'd be praying And you've thrown our principles away Cause it's come your way
The waters hot and clean It's wiping the dirt away The work is very hard but you said you'd stay Cause after all what would you do With so much time it just isn't you To just let fame and fortune run the show But we both know
Just remember who you were only yesterday Cause now you're speaking down to me Like I'm a thousand miles away
He was always very kind Always such a gentleman But since his lucky day He wasn't worth the skin He was printed on
Money wouldn't change him he'd be saying Money wouldn't take him but he'd be praying And he's thrown our principles away Cause it's come his way
Just remember who you were only yesterday Cause now you're speaking down to me Like I'm a thousand miles away
Just remember who you were only yesterday Cause now you're speaking down to me Like I'm a thousand miles a thousand miles away
Just remember who you were only yesterday Only yesterday
